Sangean ATS-505 receiver


Summary: OK except wallwart/battery design

ATS-505

My biggest complaint is that one likes to store things in memory, so one must insert batteries. OK, but one also likes to use external power ("wall wart"), but not keep the external power transformer on all the time, when the radio is not in use. I found that if I turn off power to the wallwart, I must also remove its plug at the radio end, else I recall the radio enters some warning state, etc.
